2. Never place your phone in a microwave oven as it will cause the battery to

explode.

3. Never store your phone in temperatures less than -4°F or greater than

122°F.

4. Do not dispose of your battery by fire or with hazardous or flammable

materials.

5. When riding in a car, do not leave your phone or set up the hands-free kit

near to the air bag. If wireless equipment is improperly installed and the

air bag is deployed, you may be seriously injured.

6. Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.

Important Safety Precautions

Important Safety Precautions

1. Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct sunlight or use it in

places with high humidity, such as a bathroom.

2. Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene, thinners, etc.) or

detergents to clean your phone. This could cause a fire.

3. Do not drop, strike, or shake your phone severely. It may harm the internal

circuit boards of the phone.

4. Do not use your phone in high explosive areas as the phone may generate

sparks.

5. Do not damage the power cord by bending, twisting, pulling, or heating. Do

not use the plug if it is loose as it may cause a fire or electric shock.

6. Do not place any heavy items on the power cord. Do not allow the power

cord to be crimped as it may cause electric shock or fire.

7. Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is being charged. It may

cause an electric shock or seriously damage your phone.

8. Do not disassemble the phone.

3

Important Safety Precautions

1. Do not place or answer calls while charging the phone as it may short-circuit

the phone and/or cause electric shock or fire.

2. Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with your body during a call.

3. Make sure that no sharp-edged items such as animal’s teeth or nails, come

into contact with the battery. This could cause a fire.

4. Store the battery out of reach of children.

5. Be careful that children do not swallow any parts (such as rubber plugs,

earphone, connection parts of the phone, etc.) This could cause asphyxiation

or suffocation resulting in serious injury or death.

6. Unplug the power cord and charger during lightning storms to avoid electric

shock or fire.

7. Only use the batteries and chargers provided by LG. The warranty will not be

applied to products provided by other suppliers.

8. Only authorized personnel should service the phone and its accessories.

Faulty installation or service may result in accidents and consequently

invalidate the warranty.

9. Virgin Mobile programs one or more emergency phone numbers, such as 911,

that you can call under any circumstances, even when your phone is locked.

Your phone’s preprogrammed emergency number(s) may not work in all

locations, and sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to network,

environmental, or interference issues.

Technical Details

FCC Part 15 Class B Compliance

This device and its accessories comply with

part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to

the following two conditions: (1) This device

and its accessories may not cause harmful

interference, and (2) this device and its

accessories must accept any interference

received, including interference that causes

undesired operation.

Technical Details

The Rumor Touch is an all digital phone that

operates on both Code Division Multiple

Access (CDMA) frequencies: Cellular services

at 800 MHz and Personal Communication

Services (PCS) at 1.9 GHz.

CDMA technology uses a feature called DSSS

(Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum) that

enables the phone to keep communication from

being crossed and to use one frequency channel

by multiple users in the same specific area. This

results in a 10-fold capacity increase when

compared with analog mode. In addition,

features such as soft / softer handoff, hard

handoff, and dynamic RF power control

technologies combine to reduce call

interruptions.

The Cellular and PCS CDMA networks

consist of MSO (Mobile Switching Office),

BSC (Base Station Controller), BTS (Base

Station Transmission System), and MS

(Mobile Station).

* TSB-74: Protocol between an IS-95A

system and ANSI J-STD-008

Its battery life is twice as long as IS-95.

High-speed data transmission is also

possible.

The following tab lists some major CDMA

standards.

FCC RF Exposure Information

WARNING! Read this information before

operating the phone.

In August 1996, the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC) of the

United States, with its action in Report and

Order FCC 96-326, adopted an updated

safety standard for human exposure to

Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic

energy emitted by FCC regulated

transmitters. Those guidelines are

consistent with the safety standard

previously set by both U.S. and

11

Technical Details

international standards bodies. The design

of this phone complies with the FCC

guidelines and these international

standards.

Bodily Contact During Operation

This device was tested for typical use with

the back of the phone kept 0.79 inches

(2.0 cm) from the body. To comply with

FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum

separation distance of 0.79 inches (2.0

cm) must be maintained between the user’s

body and the back of the phone, including

the antenna, whether extended or

retracted. Third-party belt-clips, holsters,

and similar accessories containing metallic

components should not be used. Avoid the

use of accessories that cannot maintain

0.79 inches (2.0 cm) distance between the

user’s body and the back of the phone and

have not been tested for compliance with

FCC RF exposure limits.

the Vehicle-Mounted External Antenna

(Optional, if available.)

To satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements,

keep 8 inches (20 cm) between the user /

bystander and the Vehicle-Mounted

External Antenna. For more information

about RF exposure, visit the FCC website

at www.fcc.gov.

FCC Notice and Cautions

This device and its accessories comply with

part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject

to the following two conditions: (1) This
